Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A photoacoustic sensor is developed for the noninvasive detection of biological substances in human body. The photoacoustic sensor is consisted of a high quality factor silicon resonator which is hermetically packaged by glass-silicon bonding. A glass window is formed in the sensor in order to irradiate pulse laser light to an object. The laser pulses passing through the window is irradiated to the object is converted to acoustic wave if the laser pulses are absorbed. The acoustic wave travels to the resonators via the glass and silicon support, thus, the acoustic wave can be detected from the vibration amplitude of the resonator. It is demonstrated that the small amount of glucose concentration in gelatin samples can be estimated from the developed photoacoustic sensors.
